Accommodation Service for Members

Dear Vajra brothers and sisters

As you probably know, most of the houses in our beautiful global gar Dzamling Gar, while still under reconstruction, are nearing completion. In 2012, Rinpoche offered each of the regional gars a house within Dzamling Gar so that each gar could offer an accommodation service to their members of our global community.

It is very likely that all these houses will be available for accommodation for our members during this coming retreat season.

Accommodation reservations for each Gar are now supervised by “Occupation Managers” who will take care to ensure we provide an accommodation service with clear guidelines that respect the privilege and requirements of residing in Dzamling Gar.

Any interested member of the International Dzogchen Community is invited to make application to reserve accommodation by communicating to the Occupation Manager approved by the Gar where they have established membership.

Tribute to Chögyal Namkhai Norbu

The Song of the Vajra

Unborn,
Yet continuing without interruption,
Neither coming nor going, omnipresent,
Supreme Dharma,
Immutable space, beyond definition,
Spontaneously, self-liberating.
Perfect state without any obstruction,
Existent from the very beginning,
Self created, without location,
With nothing negative to reject,
And nothing positive to accept,
Infinite expanse, all pervading,
Immense, and limitless, unbound,
With nothing even to dissolve
Or from which to be liberated.
Present beyond Space and Time,
Existent from the beginning,
Immense dimension of inner space,
The radiance of clarity is like the sun and the moon,
Self perfected,
As indestructible as the Vajra,
As stable as a mountain,
As pure as a lotus,
Strong as a lion,
Incomparable bliss
Beyond all limits;
Illumination,
Equanimity,
Peak of the Dharma,
Light of the Universe,
Perfect since the very beginning.
